Virtual pipe club meeting on Zoom today, since Alaska is now in lock down. Synjeco Holker Twist in the Chris Paulson Devil Anse, then some Country Squire Second Breakfast in the Boswell Shot Shell Black Coal Bent Poker. A fine day.

Last I had earlier (joints still pretty stuff, so a lot of today indoors on the sofa) was some good old go-to Black Frigate in a nice Chacom acquired from Pipestud. Hard to beat a good solid blend like that.

Was in the mood for something strangely sweet. Just started in on a bit of Dragon Flake in a IMP Rhodesian Meer whilst watching Film Noir on TCM.️

This one is pretty good! I get fruity caramel notes with subtle vanilla throughout. It is cased significantly, definitely not gooped up. Rub out, dry for a 1/2 hour and enjoy. I only smoke this “so often” cause cased aromatics are less & less interesting for me...but I do enjoy this from time to time.️

Sounds right up my alley, I like the occasional aro prefer them less goopy. Especially in flake form. Thanks!!!

Yikes. I was all ready to buy it until you said that ?

It’s heavily flavored. Like really heavy. But done well.

Does anyone else find it odd that the picture on the front of Spark Plug is a nut and bolt, and not actually a spark plug? It doesn't upset me, I don't have a vested interest in the design of this tin or anything, I just noticed it a while back and now can't un-see it as they say.

Tbh, I hadn’t noticed. I did recognize that I’d never seen one “quite like that” but registered it as “older than I’m used to.”
Anyway, this is what I’ve moved on to at least for tonight;
